I worked with Greenberg in NYC , having grown up in the middle of the Mary Meyer the Artist / CIA story . He guided me through modest success as a made man in the art world . His gig , the color field artists from DC Yada Yada . I did not really fit in with the other artists .. I was an observer . I have a photo of him ( Clem ) in Mary’s studio after my Dad , Bradlee , and Angleton demolished it looking for her diary .
My father was one of the Poet Spies who helped to publish Zhivago , from the Angleton stable . Age 11 I was grilling steaks with secret sauce out in Arlington for them as they discussed Ezra Pound .
I sat with J Edgar in his box at the races , vol 1 of my books being ‘ the chase ‘ to find his dress and shoes . Novelized .
Curious parellel with Abstract Expressionism, which CIA also sponsored and inflated on the art market. Also with Cornelius Cardew's book. 'Stockhausen Serves Imperialism', which, for all its dry Maoism, sussed correctly that the reactionary West used the avant garde to display the 'freedom' capitalism gives for self-expression. Not healthcare or housing, mind you, but freedom from the constraints of socialist realism.
Countries like Vietnam and Iran were not permitted to own their resources or elect their own governments, but the Shah was free to use his people's money to buy Andy Warhol paintings and stage John Cage concerts (ironically boycotted by the Persian students who would have been interested in the music, while the philistine Shah and his dope-peddling family sat through 4'33 or works for prepaired piano).
Your show is great! Really fascinating and wonderfully told!
The CIA wasn't interested in classical music per se ; they were merely trying to go after certain prominent American composers such as Aaron Copland because of their alleged "communist sympathies ".
Was there any studies done with tonal music influence on dopamine levels and remote viewing?

I like new classical music. Atonal stuff seems like so much noise.

How would you describe the works of Anton Webern, who was accidentally shot by an American soldier September 15, 1945?

I lived with a Composer who was sponsored by the CIA in the Fifties for a concert in Greece.
Interesting episode. Love the soothingly beautiful musical excerpt at the end too!
